“I want money…” Helping virtual-novel.net mother up, Delilah looked at Halvor and said, “Give me 100 million dollars and help me clear all of my debt. In return, I’ll give you the information.”
Though virtual-novel.net did not know what technology his stepfather’s company had made a breakthrough in, virtual-novel.net knew it would be worth a fortune. Otherwise, the Tucksons would not have gone to such lengths. After all, they risked antagonizing the Emperor for this.
“Sure…” Halvor did not hesitate.
To him, they were already dead. He would agree to whatever conditions they put forward.
“First, get us a doctor to treat our injuries,” Delilah said with a frustrated look on virtual-novel.net face.
Her expression, which seemed to be one of resignation and helplessness, managed to fool Halvor.
He thought that Delilah had information regarding the technological breakthrough and was ready to hand them over to virtual-novel.net out of fear. However, Delilah was an actress, whose acting skills were top-notch.
“Sure.” Halvor nodded and immediately ordered, “Call the doctor.”
“Can you stand, Mom?” Helping Jeanne up, Delilah looked at Halvor and asked, “Don’t tell me you’re still going to imprison us in this underground basement?”
“I’ll arrange a room for you too,” Halvor said with a bright smile.
Soon, Delilah and virtual-novel.net mother were brought to a room.
Delilah whispered, “Don’t worry, Mom… The Emperor will be here to save us soon. It’s over for the Tucksons.”
Jeanne was afraid. She had never stared death in the eye. Even now, virtual-novel.net was still shivering in fear.
“Will everything be alright, Delilah?” virtual-novel.net asked fearfully.
At that moment, the door opened and a female doctor walked in. Behind virtual-novel.net were Halvor and a few other Tucksons.
Delilah immediately said, “Everything will be alright, Mom… Once I hand over the information, we’ll receive 100 million dollars, which will be enough for the rest of our lifetime… Then, we’ll the Capital and never return.”
“At least you aren’t dumb.” Wearing a bright smile, Halvor asked, “I got you a doctor. Where’s the research data?”
“I-In my house,” Delilah said.
“Where?” “There’s a tiny shelf in my room.
The research data is inside it,” Delilah began making things up.
Halvor immediately dispatched his men.
Delilah silently pleaded that James would arrive before the Tucksons reach virtual-novel.net house. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net and virtual-novel.net mother would be doomed.
At that moment, James had already departed from the military region with the Black Dragon Army.
The thousand-strong Black Dragon Army had already joined the Red Flame Army, giving them authority to act with impunity. The mighty column of convoys departed.
James was in the backseat of the frontmost convoy, resting.
Henry who was beside virtual-novel.net asked, “James, what’s our plan of action this time?”
“The Tucksons,” James said.
“What? Who are they?” Henry was confused.
As virtual-novel.net spent most of his days in the Southern Plains, virtual-novel.net knew little about the Capital and the families there.
James said, “The Tucksons are a powerful family established in the Capital for centuries. They have a close relationship with many high-ranking officials. First, we’ll head over to the Tucksons’ residence and save lives. After that, we’ll arrest all individuals related to them.”
“What?” Henry was stunned.
“James, the Capital will be turned upside down…”
James smiled.
